A bit about Luke, the philosophy, and what families say.
Local Learners is run by Luke Gallagher in Sydney's eastern suburbs. Luke holds degrees in Engineering and Computer Science from the University of Sydney, is currently completing a Juris Doctor at UNSW, and works professionally alongside Local Learners. That mix of STEM and law gives him a strong handle on the subjects most parents are looking for help with, from primary maths and literacy through to HSC English, Maths and the sciences.
So much of tutoring is a black box. You pay for the hours and never really see whether your child is moving forward, which outcomes have been covered, or where the money has actually gone. Local Learners is built to change that.
Every program is planned around the NSW syllabus and built session by session for the specific child. Parents get a real app that shows exactly which outcomes are being covered, mastered, and worked on next, so you can see where your child is going, not just what you paid for.
Limited spots. Please get in touch to talk about your child.
In-person across Sydney's eastern suburbs — Bondi, Bronte, Coogee, Maroubra, Randwick, Kensington, Paddington, Woollahra, Bellevue Hill, Rose Bay, Vaucluse and the surrounding postcodes. Online sessions are available anywhere in Australia, so families outside the eastern suburbs are welcome too.
A few words from families who've used the app to follow their child's progress.
"Luke is currently tutoring my Year 7 son in both maths and English. He's very patient and is excellent at explaining difficult maths concepts. They actually sound like they're having fun during their lessons! He's also been giving my eldest some guidance with his upcoming Ancient History HSC exam, working on past papers with him and preparing a solid study plan to set him on the right track."
"Luke is a wonderful tutor. Our son is engaged, interested and focused during each lesson. Luke has an excellent teaching style and many methods to help support our son's learning needs."
"My daughter was very happy with the session and felt comfortable with Luke. I would recommend Luke for your child's tutoring needs."
